Ousmane Dembele Set to Stay at Barcelona Despite Contact From Liverpool & Bayern Munich

Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele has been tipped to remain loyal to the Catalan club this summer, despite reported transfer contact from Champions League winners Liverpool and reigning German champions Bayern Munich.

Dembele remains the fourth most expensive player of all time after joining Barcelona from Borussia Dortmund in a deal worth up to €145m including add-ons two summers ago, but the 22-year-old has battled injuries and struggled for consistency during his time at Camp Nou.

It might have understandably led the 2018 World Cup winner to consider a new challenge, but that doesn't appear to be the case after alleged interest from Liverpool and Bayern has been met with a preference to stay put.
